There is a common headline that The Onion (premier satirical news outlet) uses whenever there is a mass shooting in the USA. It is very unfortunate that that we get to read this headline frequently. Most of the article is also redundant where only the place and dates are changed. This is not trivializing the grave occurrence that it is talking about but on the contrary, it is working on the principle of castigat ridendo mores which means ‘laughing corrects morals’. Simply put, satire does cause social change.

The rooms are bright and clean, quiet as Dr. Sujata takes care of a patient reclining in the chair at her Dayspring Dental Clinic. She works steadily, taking the time to give her undivided attention to the person in front of her. She doesn’t rush, instead working steadily to provide the first-class treatment her reputation has been built upon.

Primary education is base of personal-social and cultural ethos along with economic booms. Who can deny this fact? Even though the emerging scenario of P-Education is not inspiring. Cocking a snook at the tall claims of the Centre and UP Government regarding promotion of education, the ramshackle condition of building of Basic Shiksha Parishad schools which sans the basic facilities speak volumes for the double standard residing in power.

There is no gainsaying that one of the most intractable problems having a longterm negative impact on the life of the people of Assam is the suspected foreigners from Bangladesh illegally living in the land-deficient State. Quite naturally, the local people were very much concerned over the large presence of illegal immigrants. After all, should the influx from across the border continues, it will not only turn the Assamese people into a minority in their own land but also pose a serious threat to their sociocultural life.
